MUCP (Maximal urethral closure pressure) is known to be increased in patients with vaginal wall prolapse due to the mechanical obstruction of the urethra. However, urethral function following reduction has not yet been completely elucidated. Predicting postoperative urethral function may provide patients with important, additional information prior to surgery. Thus, this study was performed to ...

A multistate cooperative study was conducted to study the current issue of tail length in docked lambs and its relationship to incidence of rectal prolapse. A total of 1,227 lambs at six locations were randomly allocated to two or three tail dock treatments: 1) short--tail was removed as close to the body as possible, 2) medium--tail was removed at a location midway between the attachment of th...

PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the surgical outcomes and safety of robotic sacrocolpopexy (RSC) in patients with uterine/vaginal vault prolapse. METHODS Between January 2009 and June 2015, 16 women with apical prolapse underwent RSC. Pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) examination was performed, and treatment success was defined as the presence of grade 0 or I apical prolaps...

34 patients with catheter verified, haemodynamically trivial mitral leaflet prolapse with chest pain and normal coronary arteries were studied. Nineteen had no auscultatory signs of MLP despite clear catheter or echocardiographic evidence of prolapse. Infero-lateral repolarisation changes on the resting electrocardiogram were present in 29%. 50% had false positive exercise tests. M-mode echocar...

The pathophysiology of pelvic organ prolapse is believed to be multifactorial. Several risk factors, such as childbirth and aging, have been identified. Suspected aberrations in the structure and function of the connective tissue, muscles, and nerves of the pelvic floor are still under investigation. In this article, the cellular, biochemical, and molecular basis of pelvic organ prolapse is dis...

objective: pelvic organ prolapse is a common disorder in women over the world and its general treatment is surgery. therefore it is important to consider if vaginal symptoms, quality of life and sexual function after surgery improve. the purpose of this study was to assess vaginal symptoms in women 3 months after surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. materials and methods: in this study 50 eligibl...

BACKGROUND Pelvic organ prolapse is common and is strongly associated with childbirth and increasing age. Women with prolapse are often advised to do pelvic floor muscle exercises, but evidence supporting the benefits of such exercises is scarce. We aimed to establish the effectiveness of one-to-one individualised pelvic floor muscle training for reducing prolapse symptoms. METHODS We did a p...

Case Description- A 6-year-old mare suffering from uterine prolapsed was presented to the veterinary clinic. The uterus was prolapsed 4 hours following a normal foaling. Clinical Findings- Initial evaluations of the uterus revealed that prolapsed part of uterus (about 60 centimeters) was congested but its endometrial tissue was seen viable. ...

Case Description- A 1-year-old female Domestic Shorthair cat weighing 2.5 kg with one week history of protruding mass from the vulva was admitted. Clinical Findings- The prolapse was complete involving both horns protruding from the vulva and a soft bulging mass was palpable inside the prolapsed uterus. Treatment and Outcome- The prolapsed organ was irrigated with warm saline soluti...
